Jackson dwelling in Fleet-street, and are to be sold at his shop under Temple-barre gate, 1596
Ostensibly edited by Hadrian Dorrell from the papers left by his friend Henry Willoughby; thought to be the work of Dorrell himself, though the name is probably ficticious. Has been ascribed to the Earl of Southampton and others
"The cumulative evidence makes it almost certain that the W.S. of the poem stands for William Shakespeare."

The victorie of English Chastitie, under the fained name of Avisa [signed Thomas Willoby frater, Henrici Willoby nuper defuncti] C. Dedication and introductory verses to poem [Penelope's complaint] by Peter Colse. The text of the Avisa has been prepared by collating Dr. Grosart's edition (1880) with the 1594 edition in the British museum.
